Divinity: OS has been 10k+ daily players for a while. Good for the devs.
I think I should start my Divinity II walkthrough.

Well, it IS lunacy haha but I just need this one game for my Steam collection and I'll be happy.
I'm pretty satisfied if the price ends up at 60 keys, seeing that the buyout price seems to be 100 keys with many sellers.
Also, it's one of those games I have a "close connection" with, as my at the time best friend worked for the team, and also created the last mission of Mafia II.

first the saoirse avatars, now the trying to buy rare games for no reason...
starting to think JaseC is a bad influence on SteamGAF
I don't see a problem at all.
good game breh

listen to the mad man
Mafia 1 is actually a really excellent, original game that to me is one of the best PC games of its era. I'm not sure I'd pay $100+ for it today, but it definitely deserves the time of day.
good morning
I hope you win bro

I played it ages ago and all I remember from the game is "I've never seen that lock before".
And I never actually completed it, which I really want to do now.
It had some excellent mission design (I remember the storm at the farm at night, and that hard as balls race), and great storytelling and fantastic atmosphere for its time.
It sure is one of the greatest of its era, to me at least. Though I were a bigger fan of The Getaway, this Mafia is a classic.
Finally set up the Metro for Steam UI Skin. Really like it for when I'm just browsing my game library and friends lists. Has a nice little look to it. I gotta find myself some more skins soon and find something I want to truly stick with.
Also JShackles new screenshot viewer for the games pics is downright amazing. This has been needed for a long time. Now we just need the screenshot viewer implemented in the Steam Community screenshots and Enhanced Steam would be perfection.
It's Called Brahforce braaah. Also goodluck brah

What most people remember is probably the race. I don't know if they patched it later but I'm still proud of having won it fair and square.

I love the amount of characters you unlock. So many good ones.
Ash from Evil Dead popping up was just amazing. These aren't considered spoilers right?
The names are all hilarious too.
You people are making it really hard to save my money.
Peeps, peeps, peeps! This game, This Game, THIS GAME! If you have every played and somewhat enjoyed a Capcom or Konami NES platformer you will more than likely love Shovel Knight. It takes inspiration from a whole host of titles but instead of straight up ripping the ideas off it makes them its own. It has all the whit and charm of game of old that is sadly missing from modern day retro remakes or games that draw inspiration from. Plus the sound track really harks back to the good old 8bit days (and you can listen and buy it from composer Jake Kaufman's bandcamp page). Oh and here's a lot more pics.

I have heard nothing but infamous things about that race.
The only real detraction was the lack of an in-game city wide map, so navigation, especially for the first two missions can be a chore. I was disappointed that they streamlined the driving mechanics for the sequel.
It really wasn't that big of an issue. It only required a few replays.

Stump knows what's up. Still one of my favorite PC games.
You could take a shortcut and then press 0 to reset your car, you would end up near finish line, something like that. I won it fair the first time, but everytime I replayed it I just used the shortcut, because this race was really damn hard.
Is enhanced steam broken right now?
I get:
In the chrome consle.
I get:

why is it that when you look for custom icons you find stuff like this
like what do people actually do with them
are there really people out there that do this just for "general library purposes" or something cause jesus christ
the only thing I find funnier is the notepad file these are probably attached to
Maybe i'm alone here...but I dont want my Nintendo games on Steam...
It starts off really really badly though, with the slowest car section ever, followed by the most on-rails-without-guidance-and-instakills-in-an-open-world 'escape' section.
Rhaknar, no, stahp!
What are you doing?!
Seems like it. Store doesn't load if ES is activated.
I know I'm loving the hell out of this game right now. What stage are you at right now? Can't wait to finish and write up my impressions, even though I'm sure many who wanted the game probably already have it. Been a good break/ distraction from my Dark Souls failure (which I really need to pick up on again). The music is just so damn amazing though. Mole Knight, Specter Knight, Tinker Knight, just a whole bunch of great music and stage tracks all around. Treasure Knights level and miniboss bring back some many memories of a favorite level of mine from Megaman 2
Weird.. seems to be working for me right now. Is it not loading up the page at all for you?
nope.jpg
Won it fair as well. That shortcut is news to me.
Mafia was really good for its time, but not many people that I knew of cared about that game. Everyone was expecting Vice City at the time.

Since the SteamGAF group still uses the old GAF logo I took the liberty and made a updated one, one transparent and one with a black background. Not sure if any group admin wants to use it but I thought why not share

lol What the hell is Dark? I don't even see it on Steam, it just shows me Dark Souls.
tell him Muncher!
The king of fruit and fish! Long may his stem grow!
Yup, I still need to play more Divinity, but I can already tell it's my type of RPG and I will really be enjoying it once I finally get to sink my teeth into it. Shovel Knight and Valiant Hearts are my favorite games of the year so far, and all these great impressions about Divinity want me to push myself to play and finish Dark Souls 1 and 2 so I can finally get around to playing it. Til then though I told myself I wouldn't play any other big RPG's til I finish the Souls series.
lol that 5th review on the store page basically told me everything I needed to know.
Edit: damn double posting huggy

What's the GAF Hype like on Child of Light?
I love UbiArt framework and a good story.

janky euro vampire stealth / action / something game. gfx reminds me of Saints Row 3, must be all the purple
just started it, what can I say, I like b-movies, and I like...b-games?
also, im not defending the game, im sure its bad, but those steam reviews sure are a good way to determine if a game is good or not, you know, like Gone Home
The store is loading but nothing gets marked in green/yellow and i have a red dot at the top right saying there was an error loading enhanced steam.
